Well, everything is set, my second erasmus experience is about to start. During this week I’ve been arranging and fixing some pending tasks I had pulled apart, mostly some erasmus paperwork. And now it is time to say farewell to everyone. For example, yesterday we had dinner with the work colleagues in a comfortable, warm restaurant in Gracia district called La Barbacoa de Gràcia. Food was excellent indeed, with a wide range of barbecued meats and torrades, slices of toast with cold meats, cheeses and stuff like this on it. Well, regarding the trip, I have to say I’m flying from Barcelona Airport (13.30h) to Glasgow International Airport (15.25h) with FlyGlobeSpan. Once there, I gotta have to look for a way to get to the Queen Street train Station, for there’s only one direct train to Aberdeen at 17.40h. They told me it is worth to behold the landscape during the train journey, specially when passing near the Firth of Forth. Anyway I promise I’ll pay attention and take some pictures to show you in future posts. Take care!

The picture below shows a Google Earth screenshot of the Hillhead Halls zone in Aberdeen. This is where I’ll be living from the end of January on and for a little more than four months. I’ve put some numbers on it to point out some interesting findings:

Good morning, bon dia, bonjour, guten tag, buon giorno, goddag, hyvää päivää, konnichi wa, habari gani, buenos días, prynhawn da!

This is the first post of this modest blog and hopefully it won’t be the last ;). Gonna introduce myself. Im a common guy holding a common life in a still common country. Im engineer in informatics (or almost) by the Faculty of informatics of Barcelona -I hate informatics though- and I’m currently living in Arenys, a small, dusty and lovely town located about 40km (24.8miles) away from Barcelona City, northwards along the catalan Mediterranean coast. I spent one year in Reading, UK, studying in The University of Reading enroled in the SOCRATES/Erasmus program.
